1. STAFF ORIENTATION

2.  The purpose of employee evaluation is to offer employees feedback and help them understand their strengths and weaknesses. Evaluations provide an opportunity for growth and assist in measuring job performance.  Many principals have expressed the need for a process to evaluate the performance of Before/After Childcare program staff.  Previously, there was no approved evaluation tool for B/A positions. We now have a standardized process for evaluating B/A program staff.

3.  Intervention Services worked with Human Resources throughout 2011-12 to update job descriptions and develop an evaluation tool for staff working in WCPSS Before/After School Childcare Programs.  Evaluation forms will be posted on the Human Resources Website by the end of September.

4.  The approved WCPSS job descriptions outline the expectations for Coordinators and Assistants.  The approved evaluation instruments align with the approved job descriptions.  Program staff can also view information about job expectations by going to the Tuition School Care Blackboard site.

5. Please take a few minutes to review your job description and evaluation instrument.

6.  Begins during the 2012-13 school year  Must be shared with all current program staff by Sept. 14, 2012  Must be shared with any new program staff within 10 working days of B/A employment  Completed annually (by the end of the school year) for all program staff and submitted to Human Resources

7.  Coordinators and Assistants who work regularly in the program get performance evaluations.  There is a required 3 month probationary evaluation for all new program staff.  If you are continuing employment in the BA program from the 2011-12 school year, a 3 month probationary evaluation can be done at the discretion of your administrator.  Does not apply to Student Assistants  Does not apply to substitutes in the program

8.  The principal or another building administrator designated by the principal evaluates all program staff.  The Coordinator can assist the administrator with input in evaluating program staff at the principal’s discretion.

9.  The B/A evaluation addresses performance in the B/A program only.  It does not take the place of and does not consider job performance for another role with the WCPSS.  For example: If a TA also works in the B/A program, that employee receives an evaluation as a TA, and a separate evaluation as a B/A Coordinator or Assistant.
